Both the internal oscillator and the duty cycle of the gate driver are running at a fixed rate. J{uvgtgvke"Oqfg Eqpvtqnngt As this device is designed for a step up conversion, a pulse train is used to control the switch of a classical switching boost converter. The pulse train is gated by the output of the comparator, which compares the feedback of the output voltage with the voltage reference. Hysteretic Mode Controller and a Classical Boost Converter Internal Oscillator If the output voltage reaches the target voltage, the comparator will turn off the pulse train. When the output voltage drops below the target voltage, the comparator will pass the pulse train to the switch and start the inductor charging cycle. The advantage of this hysteretic mode controller is its stability and simple operation. Doc.# DSFP-HV9150 NR031914 XQWV This device has an internal oscillator which generates the reference clock for the hysteretic mode controller. The controller is running at half of the frequency of the internal oscillator. This oscillator is powered by the VLL power supply pin. 5 Supertex inc. www.supertex.com HV9150 Charge Pump Converter (CP mode) The frequency of the oscillator is set by the external resistor RFREQ, and this frequency is inversely proportional to the value of RFREQ. Its characteristic is shown in the fOSC vs RFREQ diagram. 1 fOSC = 4 • RFREQ • C A 3x charge pump converter is integrated into this device to provide a 5V to 12V rail for the gate driver. It can be activated by setting CP_EN to ground. A 3.3V supply is more common and easily available for digital logic systems; however, this voltage level is less desirable for driving a high voltage MOSFET to obtain a lower ON-resistance for better efficiency. where C = 4.75pF In order to reduce the number of supply rails used in the system, an internal two stage charge pump converter is added, which can boost the 3.3V supply voltage to 8.0V. A 8.0V gate driver output will outperform a 3.3V gate driver by far and substantially improves the ON-resistance of the external MOSFET. Voltage Reference (VREF) The voltage reference is used by the comparator to compare with the feedback voltage and the boost converter output. This device provides the options of using either its internal voltage reference or an external voltage reference. The charge pump input can operate with an input voltage from 2.7V to 4.5V. Its input and output are connected to the VLL and VDD pins, respectively. The internal voltage reference provides a stable 1.25V with a tolerance of ±2.5%. With the use of ±1% tolerance feedback resistors, the output can be achieved with a tolerance of ±4.5%. In order to use the internal voltage reference, the EXT_REF pin must be connected to ground. XNN If the output voltage of the boost converter is required to have high precision and tight tolerance, the external voltage reference can be used to achieve that purpose. The external reference voltage must be between 0.5V and VLL -1.4V, and connect to the EXT_REF pin. A single low to high transition must be presented at the EN pin to trigger the device to select an external voltage reference. If no enable control signal is available in the application, this signal can be easily mimicked by a simple RC circuit. QUE Three Times (3X) Charge Pump Converter Linear Regulator (LDO mode) In some applications, efficiency may be a key factor, and higher voltage rails such as 5V, 6V, 9V or 12V may be available in the system. The internal charge pump converter cannot operate with these voltage levels because of the maximum output voltage limit of the charge pump converter. At the same time, these voltage levels are high enough to provide an adequate supply for the gate driver. VIN EXT_REF GND Internal EXT_REF Under this circumstance, an internal linear regulator is used to replace the charge pump converter. This linear regulator input can accept voltage from 5.0V to 12.0V, and generates a 3.3V output to supply to the internal circuit. This linear regulator can be activated by setting CP_EN to VLL. Voltage Reference GND External Voltage Connection Reference In a scenario when the device is operating in LDO mode and in shutdown state (EN = ”0”), the voltage at VLL is undefined. In order to wake up the controller device, a voltage above 2.7V has to be presented at the enable pin (EN). Gate Driver (GATE) The MOSFET gate driver of this controller is specially designed to be able to drive the gate of the external MOSFET up to 12V. A high pulse voltage will help to minimize the ON-resistance of the external MOSFET transistor. A lower ON-resistance improves the overall efficiency and heat dissipation. FB Ground Return Switch (FB_RTN) Any DC/DC controller requires a feedback from the output to monitor its operation so that it can regulate its output accordingly. A simple resistor network is used in conjunction with a feedback ground switch as a feedback path. The purpose of this feedback ground switch is to save power consumed by the feedback resistor network when the controller is disabled. This function is quite useful for power saving especially for battery operated applications. This gate driver is powered by the supply voltage VDD which can be generated by either the internal charge pump converter (CP mode) or the external power supply (LDO mode), depending on the available voltage supply rail of the application. Doc.# DSFP-HV9150 NR031914 XFF 6 Supertex inc. www.supertex.com HV9150 Shutdown Timer and Timing Capacitor (CT) Duty Cycle Control (VCONTROL) A shutdown timer is also integrated into the controller for safety purposes. When the controller shuts down from its normal operation, the converter initial output is still at its high level. If the feedback ground return switch is disabled at the same time, a current path is created from the output via the feedback resistor, and the internal protection clamping diode at the FB pin. Depending upon the value of the FB resistor, this momentarily conducting current can be high enough to damage this clamping diode. In order to avoid this potential problem, a timer is added to the disable function to keep the feedback ground switch to the on position for a short period of time. This on time duration is controlled by an external capacitor CT. The larger the capacitor value is, the longer this on time is. Its characteristic is shown in the performance section. The input voltage at the VCONTROL pin controls the duty cycle of the internal oscillator output to the GATE driver. The internal comparators are all powered by the VLL supply and their input threshold voltages are all referenced to VLL voltage. A voltage divider formed by the two resistors can be adjusted accordingly to select the desired duty cycle of the pulse signal to the gate driver. Please see the table below.

The most obvious function is to turn the controller on and off, and the other function is to act as a trigger to activate the device to accept external voltage reference. For any applications required a highly precise voltage reference, an external voltage reference should be used. To activate the device to accept the external voltage reference, a low to high transition has to appear at the EN pin while the voltage at the EXT_REF pin is above 0.5V. + - Duty Cycle 87.5% + - Duty Cycle 75.0% + - Duty Cycle 62.5% + - Duty Cycle 50.0% If the system lacks enable function control, a RC circuit can be used to mimic this function to allow the external voltage reference. 3.3V (min) R EN C GND Simple RC Circuit for EN Pin Doc.# DSFP-HV9150 NR031914 7 Supertex inc. www.supertex.com HV9150 Design Procedure There are several parameters that a user will decide for the DC/DC converter design. The input voltage, output voltage and output power requirement are usually defined at the beginning. The few parameters that the user needs to decide on include: operating frequency, inductor value, duty cycle and the ON-resistance of the MOSFET. There is some degree of flexibility in deciding the values of these parameters. The following provides the user a general approach to this subject. switching frequency can be computed. The required RFREQ resistance can be found in the fGATE vs RFREQ table. Next, the peak current of the inductor is checked by the following equation. The saturation current of the inductor must be larger than IPEAK. Vi • D IPEAK = L • fGATE Step 1 The most important factors to determine the MOSFET are the breakdown voltage, the current capability, the ONresistance, the minimum VGS threshold voltage and the input capacitance. Step 3 Since this DC/DC controller device is operating in a discontinuous conduction mode, the following equations are used to determine the inductance and the switching frequency. The HV9150 gate driver is designed to drive a maximum of 300pF capacitive load. So, the maximum input capacitance of the external MOSFET should be less than 300pF. The minimum breakdown voltage must be larger than the required DC/DC converter output voltage. If the breakdown voltage is too low, the output will never reach the required voltage output. A MOSFET with high ON-resistance will limit the peak current charging the inductor. The user can use a simple RL charging circuit equation to determine its final charging current. = duty cycle = load resistance of the high voltage output = minimum input voltage = output voltage Unknown: L = inductance fGATE = driver switching frequency where: K = Vi 2 ( • 1+ 1+ 4D2 K ( VO = IL = 2 • L • fGATE ( RON Vi D 1 - exp • RON fGATE L ( Given: D R Vi VO It is recommended that the calculated value of IL is within 95% of the IPEAK calculated in step 2. An ON-resistance of less than 1Ω is usually a good starting point. R The maximum duty cycle can be determined by the following equation: Vi DMAX = 1 Vo If the final circuit is short on the output current capability, there are a few ways to boost the output. The user can do any or all of the following to improve the output: (1) increase the duty cycle (2) decrease the fGATE (3) use a MOSFET with lower ON-resistance. Then, the user can choose any duty cycle less than DMAX. It is recommended that the largest possible setting be chosen. To compensate for the limited efficiency, the user can add the efficiency factor into the load resistance R. With the above equation, the product of L and fGATE is determined. The design will be limited by the product of L and fGATE. Step 2 The standard inductor is usually sold in an incremental inductance value, for example, 10, 22, 33 or 47µH. The user can choose the inductance based on the size of the inductor, the peak current, the maximum operating frequency and the DC resistance. After the value of L is decided, the gate driver Doc.# DSFP-HV9150 NR031914 8 Supertex inc. www.supertex.com HV9150 Typical Application Circuits Charge Pump (CP) Mode VDD 0.22µF CCP1± CCP2± 0.22µF 0.22µF VIN 2.7 - 4.5V 1.0µF VLL 3x Charge Pump Converter CP Mode LDO Mode L VDD LDO CP_EN VLL VOUT 6.0 - 500V VDD VCONTROL OSC FREQ_ADJ VREF - + RFREQ GATE VLL VLL EXT_REF FB R2 FB_RTN 0V/3.3V EN R1 Delay CT GND Linear Regulator (LDO) Mode VDD CCP1± CCP2± CP Mode 3x Charge Pump Converter L LDO Mode VDD LDO CP_EN VLL GATE OSC VLL VLL - + RFREQ VOUT 15 - 500V VDD VCONTROL FREQ_ADJ VIN 5.0 - 12V 1.0µF VLL VREF EXT_REF FB R2 FB_RTN 0V/3.3V EN CT Doc.# DSFP-HV9150 NR031914 R1 Delay GND 9 Supertex inc. www.supertex.com HV9150 Typical Performance Characteristics Gate Driver Rise Time (tr) and Fall Time (tf) vs Load Capacitance at 25OC 35 30 Rise time tr, VDD = 5V (LDO mode) 25 Rise time tr, VDD = 11V (CP mode) Time (ns) 20 15 Fall time tf, VDD = 5V (LDO mode) 10 Fall time tf, VDD = 11V (CP mode) 5 0 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 Load Capacitance (pF) Gate Driver Switching Frequency vs RFREQ (VIN = 3.3V at 25OC) Frequency (kHz) 1000 100 10 10 100 1000 RFREQ (kΩ) Doc.# DSFP-HV9150 NR031914 10 Supertex inc. www.supertex.com HV9150 Typical Performance Characteristics (cont.)
